Transaction Master Detail Report
Bullhorn Support is able to assist with navigating sample reports, but they are unable to build customizations on reports for you. If you need customizations, you will need a Business Intelligence specialist who is familiar with writing database queries.
The Transaction Master Detail Report provides transaction detail visibility to Pay/Bill Transactions, which originate from the time entry system (i.e Bullhorn Time & Expense - BTE) or are manually entered in Payable or Billable Charges. This report provides a detailed focus.
This is one of three similarly-named reports, which provide visibility to the same data through a different lens. The other Transaction Master Reports are:
- Transaction Master Summary: Rollup of the Transaction Master Detail report; summarized by Candidate Placement ID, Week Ending Date, and Earn Code.
- Transaction Master Summary Exceptions Report: Uses the Transaction Master Summary report as a base, and applies various exceptions parameters to the aggregate hours for the week.
Use Cases
The primary reason to run the Transaction Master Detail Report is to pull pay and bill transaction details. This could be done for the following reasons:
-
Reconcile payable and billable charges
-
Research/review transactions related to a specific candidate, placement, client or bill-to client, etc.
Run the Transaction Master Detail Report weekly as a tool to reconcile transactions. Run on Friday view the current pay period, or run on Monday to refer to last week’s pay period.
See Sample Transaction Master Details Report to view an example of this report in action.
Running the Report
If you anticipate the report may exceed the 10,000 row limit, utilize the report parameters to break the data into smaller groups. For example, use the Company filter to pull Company names that begin with A-M and then N-Z.

Exporting to Excel
Depending on the amount of data, it may be easier to view the report via Excel. Follow these steps to export your report to Excel:
-
From the HTML drop down button in the top right corner, click View in Excel Options > View in Excel 2007 Format.
The Excel format you choose can be based on personal preference. We recommend using View in Excel 2007 Format to maintain the same format that you see in Bullhorn Reporting (Canvas) and/or if you plan to use standard Excel functions (pivot, sort, etc).
-
The request will process and a pop up stating "Your report is ready and will download to your Web browser in a few moments" will appear.
-
When prompted, Save the report to your computer.
Once the report is exported to Excel, you can utilize standard Excel functions to filter, sort and pivot the data.
